Can someone please explain...

Why I thought it was a good idea to go back and label all 1000+ posts? Seriously. I think I am getting carpal tunnel. I am also not sure how I came up with only having 300 left. I think I am about at 300 now.

I have come across some good things I posted years ago, though. No, not profound things I have said (as if!) but some really cool websites and resources I had forgotten about. I might just have to start a "best of" post once a week.

Today we had some friends over. They brought a game they got for Christmas - Apples to Apples - and I think I am going to have to look for it at the thrift store. (Since I am not buying new as of 1-1-08.) Which leads me to a question...

I need a knife sharpener. Mine bit the dust, and I found one I really want. Do I hold off and just use the sharpening steel (which really doesn't sharpen as much as it removes the burrs) or do I could it as a safety issue and get the darn thing?

And on that note, I am headed to bed. I am fighting another head cold (didn't we just do this two weeks ago?) and so far my usual method - Zicam and whining - isn't working.

I love apples to apples! I got it last year for Christmas and the nice thing is you can play it with just about any age group.

Anyway, I say get the sharpener (today or tomorrow!) It is a safety issue and it will last a very long time and make your knives last a very long time.

I am also doing no new stuff in 2008 so I know where you are coming from-I bought a new (and new as in just came out) cookbook that I really wanted yesterday because I can't get it used yet.
